Third person PoV
Saturday rolled around eventually and for some it was exciting, while for others nerve racking. Hinata left early morning with Victor and Yuri, hoping to arrive at the rink early to stretch and get ready while the rest of the team left a few hours afterwards on a large bus.

"So Shoyo you ready? Excited to see Yurio? Feeling any better? You took your pills right? You aren't too nervous are you? We sorted out the hair and makeup for you so-" "babe you're rambling. And in Russian." "I want to have more private conversations so Russian is just easier" "well thank you Vic, I took my pills, I'm not too nervous obviously I'm worried but I know I'll do fine and I can't wait to see Uncle Yurio again!" He chuckled in the back seat feeling a lot better than the night before. "How are your bandages? Wil, they been seen through the costume or are you going to take them off?" Yuri asked. "I'm not sure- maybe take them off?"

They pulled up in Victors very expensive car, decked out with one way tinted windows, and grabbed their bags rushing inside. "Hey Yuuko!" We yelled as we passed through the press. "Ah Shohei Hina how are you feeling about today's performance?" "Hina! Can we get an interview?" "Hina how does it feel being coached by two legends" questions and cameras were pointed towards the group who just pushed past them and were escorted to Hinatas changing room. Once inside he threw the bags on the sofa in the corner pulling off his coat, mask, beanie and shoes. Once down to his joggers and T-shirt he began stretching to warm up.

Mid stretch there was a knock at the door which flew open to reveal "UNCLE YURIO" Shoyo yelled. "Hey Shohei" "see Yurio knows when to use my name properly" "yeah whatever, stop calling me Yurio" "but I don't want to get you confused with Yuri" he chuckled slightly "just call me Yuri and him dad, simple" Hinata choked on his breath, unable to breathe as he coughed longer and longer. "HUH?!" he practically yelled at Yurio. "Like.i.said. You obviously think of them as dads, so call Yuri dad, Victor, pops or something and me Yuri. I don't like the damn old mans nickname" "you know we've already said you can call us dad and pops. Like we've said before you are basically our son anyway so we don't mind." Yuri explained. "Yeah I'd love to be Called pops. We've talked about having kids before anyway so we'd love for you to call us your fathers" "Uh ok, pops. If you're sure you don't mind. Thanks Uncle Yuri!" He jumped on Yurio embracing him in a long hug.

"So Shohei, your fathers told me about last night. You ok?" Yurio asked while sitting in the straddle positions, stretching his legs. "Yeah I feel a lot better now. I'm not sure why that happened but I will not ever go back to last year. And hopefully I'll never have to worry you guys like that again." "We worry because we care Sho. It's not a bad thing to need some help and we love looking after you" Yuri tried to make Hinata feel less stressed. Another knock sounded on the door which confused everyone inside. "Hello?" Victor asked.

The door opened revealing one of the back stage coordinators with headset on and someone speaking into his ear. "What's up? It doesn't start for a while yet does it, we aren't in costume yet?!" Shoyo panicked. "What, no no! We have some people here to talk to the skaters backstage. We sold vip backstage passes where they get to talk to everyone in their rooms while they stretch and warm up." "You did? no one told us this! Did you know Yurio?" "I thought I said stop with that stupid name old man. But no I had no idea" "well your first family is here, are you ready?" "Sure let them in we're just stretching" Yuri instructed.

Hinata's PoV
I continued to stare at the floor as i stretched my legs hearing a group of footsteps enter the room and the door shutting. I turned to look at the group of people there hoping to make it quick when I noticed. "GRAND KING?!" I immediately regretted saying that. 'If I didn't say that he may not have recognised me ahhhhh' "Chibi-chan? What're you doing here" "Tooru do you know Shohei Hina?" "Shohei? What do you-wait Hinata? You are Shohei Hina?!" He stood staring at me in disbelief. "Shohei do you know him?" Dad asked. "Yeah, he's basically famous in the world of volleyball. He's an amazing setter probably the best in our prefecture and plays as a third year on our rival team at Aoba Johsai. His skill is unbeatable and he has loads of fan girls" "wow Chibi-chan didn't know you thought so highly of me. But I never knew you were a rich and famous figure skater" "I never thought you'd need to know. Shouldn't you be at an inn with Seijoh anyway?"

He explained to me how their team arrived early and had a free day to explore the town, though he already had The tickets booked. "Anyway, did you want to ask me and Uncle Yuri some questions while you're here?" "Uncle?" "Just what I call him" "ok, well how long have you been skating, and how long have you known Victor and Yuri?" "Uhhh the owner of the rink Yuuko taught me how to skate when I was 6 and I befriended these guys when I was 8. They helped me with training and eventually became my coaches 2 years ago." He continued throwing questions at Yuri and I until someone came to direct them to the next room of skaters. "Wait wait grand king before you go 2 things. 1) please don't tell anyone at all. The team doesn't know and I don't want to tell them yet. While on the ice I'm a different person, they also don't know I know Dad and Pops. 2) can I have your number? I'd like to talk more" I smiled while rubbing the back of my neck.

"Sure, here you go Hina." He out his number in my phone under the contact name Tooru😉 and left shutting the door behind him. "So why'd you call him Grand King?" Pops asked. "Oh well you know Kageyama? He was known as the king back in middle school, even though it was an insult but it showed how good he was as a setter. When we made it to high school I was told about how Oikawa was even better than Kageyama which would make him like the grand king. I guess it stuck" "who's this Kageyama and why are you friends with him?"Yuri growled "He's my volleyball partner, he's the setter on my team. He's pretty annoying and always called me 'Boke'" I complained. We continued to talk about my volleyball team eventually getting changed into our costumes.

"So what're we doing with the bandages?" "You can see them through the costume right? We'll have to take them off, but it should be scabbed over at least" we unravelled the bandages and wiped off my arms then I pulled my sleeves down and looked in the mirror. I looked pretty good in my new costume. "Now hair and makeup?" "Hell yeah!" I yelled sitting back. Pops (Victor) is a god with makeup and ended up giving me a bright orange cut crease with eyeliner and bright red lipstick along with a lot of highlighter.

Hinata's eyeshadow ^
Dad (Yuri) gelled my hair back similar to how he had his during his Eros routine and they confirmed I looked nothing like Shoyo Hinata. Uncle Yuri had his hair in a high pony tail and simple makeup on, nothing as extreme as mine. Simple blush and highlight with a tiny bit of brown eyeshadow in the crease and his outfit was gold and very shiny. My outfit was orange, basically my signature colour, with black legs and feathers lining the edge. (At the top).We both had skates matching our costumes though we wouldn't put them on until we were by the ice.

"Uncle Yuri take some photos with me!" I shrieked pulling out my phone. First we took some selfies and then full body photos without our skates on before grabbing dad and pops and taking a 'family photo' of all 4 of us. I knew I'd be posting these photos on my Shohei Hina Instagram which I had to have for popularity and I was impressed with how good we both looked. I was excited to get this showcase started and hoped I'd be ok.
